Is there any way to run more than one instance of the Dock? I don't mean swap it out with different programs, like some programs do, but to give myself a dock on both the bottom and the right of the screen at once?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Nope, and the Dock does some special things (like Exposé and Dashboard) that make this less simple to work around than it would be with most programs.

The closest you can probably get is with a dock-like program, such as DragThing (which is actually a VERY good program and has uses aside from merely acting as a second/third/eighteenth dock). You could configure a DragThing dock to closely resemble the actual Dock. Not the best solution, but it's not a horrible one either.
